Manganese deficiency in wheat has become an important nutritional disorder particularly in
alkaline calcareous soils where rice-wheat rotation is followed. This experiment was aimed …

Manganese (Mn) deficiency limits wheat productivity on sandy loam, calcareous and
alkaline soils cropped with rice. Variation of wheat genotypes to sustain production and Mn …

Manganese deficiency limits wheat production particularly on highly permeable sandy soils
cropped with rice. Variation in the ability of genotypes to maintain high yield and Mn uptake …

Low zinc (Zn) availability in various agricultural soils including Vertisols adversely affects
wheat production. The variations among the wheat genotypes to produce high grain yield …

The fragrance in rice plays a significant role in consumer decisions and is influenced by
many environmental factors, eg, water and fertilizer application during cultivation and post …

The Pi9 gene in rice confers resistance to strains of blast pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae. Pi9

Mineral nutrition of plants affects the metabolism of carbohydrates between source and sink
organs in plants during grain filling. Minimal information exists on source–sink dynamics of …

Key message Genetic variability in dry matter and manganese partitioning between source
and sink organs was the key mechanism for Mn efficient rice genotypes to cope with Mn …

Increasing manganese (Mn) deficiency in soils emphasizes strategies for breeding
genotypes with increased Mn efficiency. The present investigation evaluated Mn efficiency of …

Plant species as well as cultivars of the same species differ in their Mn efficiency. This paper
studied the differential Mn efficiency in relation to Mn dynamics in the rhizosphere and root …
